Alaves vs. Villarreal (Saturday, 1.00pm)
Villarreal will be aiming to stretch their unbeaten run in La Liga to four matches when they head to Mendizorrotza Stadium on Saturday afternoon to tackle Alaves.
The away side are 14th in the table, picking up just 24 points from their 23 league games this season, while Alaves are 11th, collecting 26 points from their opening 23 matches of 2023-24.
We say: Alaves 1-1 Villarreal
Alaves found it difficult against Barcelona last time out, but their recent form has been strong, and Villarreal are not exactly having a brilliant season. We are expecting this contest to be very tight and are struggling to separate them, which has led to us backing a low-scoring draw on Saturday afternoon.

Real Sociedad vs. Osasuna (Saturday, 3.15pm)
Real Sociedad will switch their attention back to La Liga this weekend, with the Basque outfit preparing to welcome Osasuna to the Reale Arena.
The White and Blues were in Copa del Rey action on Tuesday, drawing 0-0 with Mallorca in the first leg of their semi-final, while Osasuna suffered a 3-0 home defeat to Celta Vigo in the league last weekend.
We say: Real Sociedad 1-0 Osasuna
This is a tough match to call, as Real Sociedad will certainly be thinking about their trip to Paris next week. Osasuna will also be the fresher of the two sides, but Real Sociedad are the favourites, and we believe that their superior quality will allow them to secure a hugely important three points on Saturday.

Real Madrid vs. Girona (Saturday, 5.30pm)
The top two in La Liga will lock horns for a monumental clash on Saturday evening, with division leaders Real Madrid welcoming second-placed Girona to Bernabeu.
Real Madrid have claimed 58 points from their 23 league matches this season to lead the way in Spain's top flight, but surprise package Girona are just two points behind Carlo Ancelotti's side ahead of this contest.
We say: Real Madrid 2-1 Girona
This is shaping up to be a fascinating match at Bernabeu, with the two best teams in La Liga this season locking horns. Girona would certainly accept a point if it were offered ahead of kickoff, and Real Madrid might be willing to do the same, but we just have a feeling that the capital outfit's superior quality will allow them to record a narrow victory in Saturday's clash in the capital.

Las Palmas vs. Valencia (Saturday, 8.00pm)
Valencia will be aiming to continue their push for the top six when they head to Las Palmas on Saturday evening for an intriguing affair in Spain's top flight.
Los Che are currently seventh in the La Liga table, two points behind sixth-placed Real Sociedad, while Las Palmas are also having a strong season, currently sitting up in ninth position.
We say: Las Palmas 1-1 Valencia
Las Palmas have only lost three times at home this season, while Valencia have just three away victories to their name. Strong cases can be made for both teams to win on Saturday, but we are expecting a very tight game and have had to settle on a low-scoring draw.
